.To use Detect Panning to minimize image blur (Detect Panning)
1.Point the camera at location where the subject will pass and then half-
press the shutter button to adjust exposure and focus.
2.Press the shutter button the rest of the way 
down.
This will put the camera into Auto Shutter standby. 
Move the camera to follow the movement of the 
subject. The camera will release the shutter 
automatically the moment it determines there is no blur 
in the subject you are following.
•“0 Auto” flashes on the monitor screen while 
panning detection is in progress.
.To use Detect Smile to record when a subject is smiling 
(Detect Smile)
1.Point the camera at the subject and half-press the shutter button. Wait 
until the camera adjusts exposure and focus automatically.
2.Press the shutter button the rest of the way 
down.
The camera will go into a standby mode and start 
detecting whether the subject is smiling. The camera 
will release the shutter automatically the moment it 
determines the subject is smiling.

.To change Auto Shutter trigger sensitivity (Sensitivity)
1.Use [8] and [2] to select “Sensitivity” and then press [6].
2.Use [4] and [6] to select the sensitivity setting you want, and then 
press [SET].
• You can select any one of three sensitivity levels, from /.. (Lowest) to 
/// (Highest).
• With the /// (Highest) setting, the auto shutter release is triggered relatively 
easily. Auto shutter release triggering becomes more difficult with the /.. 
(Lowest) setting, but recorded images have the least blur. Experiment with 
Auto Shutter trigger sensitivity settings to find the one that work best for you.
.Using Auto Shutter in Combination with Continuous Shutter
The following describes how Auto Shutter works while used in combination with 
Continuous Shutter (page 43).
Tips for Better Auto Shutter Snapshots
• Using Auto Shutter in combination with Anti Shake (page 67) reduces the chance 
of image blur even more.
• While recording with Detect Blur or Detect Smile, keep the camera as still as 
possible until the recording operation is complete.
With CS: Normal 
Speed CS, CS: 4 fps, 
and CS: 10 fpsThe camera will go back into Auto Shutter standby and be 
ready to shoot again each time it is triggered. To stop an 
ongoing Continuous Shutter operation, wait until “0 Auto” 
is flashing on the monitor screen, and then press [SET].
With CS: Flash3 continuous shutter images will be shot with flash when 
Auto Shutter is triggered.

IMPORTANT!
• If the camera remains in Auto Shutter standby without releasing the shutter, you 
can record an image by pressing the shutter button all the way down again.
• Detect Blur and Detect Panning may not produce the desired effect when shooting 
in an area where dim lighting requires a slow shutter speed, or when the subject is 
moving extremely quickly.
• Since facial expressions differ from individual to individual, you may experience 
problems with getting the camera to release the shutter while Detect Smile is being 
used. If this happens, change the trigger sensitivity setting.
• The Auto Power Off (page 140) trigger time is fixed at five minutes while the 
camera is in Auto Shutter standby. Sleep (page 139) is disabled while Auto Shutter 
being used.
• To cancel Auto Shutter recording while Auto Shutter is being performed (indicated 
by “0 Auto” flashing on the monitor screen), press [SET].
• The “Ë Tracking” setting for the AF area cannot be used while Detect Blur or 
Detect Panning is selected for the Auto Shutter setting (page 41).
• Always make sure you had “Û Spot” selected for the AF area whenever you are 
using the Detect Smile Auto Shutter setting (page 41).
• Auto Shutter cannot be used in combination with any of the following features.
– Some BEST SHOT scenes
• The following function is disabled when shooting with Auto Shutter.
– Triple Self-timer

Procedure
[r] (REC) * [SET] * MENU * REC Tab * Memory
When you turn off the camera, it remembers the current settings of all enabled 
memory items and restores them when you turn it back on. Any memory item that is 
disabled will be returned to its initial default setting whenever you turn off the camera.
*Optical zoom setting only.
• If you turn the camera power off and then back on while the BEST SHOT memory 
item is enabled, all of the other memory items (except for zoom position) are 
initialized to the currently selected BEST SHOT sample scene setup, regardless of 
the enabled/disabled status of the other memory items.

Procedure
[r] (REC) * [SET] * MENU * Quality Tab * T Quality (Snapshot)
• The “Fine” setting helps to bring out details when shooting a finely detailed image 
of nature that includes dense tree branches or leaves, or an image of a complex 
pattern.
• Memory capacity (the number of images you can record) will be affected by the 
quality settings you configure (page 166).
Procedure
[r] (REC) * [SET] * MENU * Quality Tab * » Quality (Movie)
Movie image quality is a standard that determines the detail, smoothness, and clarity 
of a movie during playback. Shooting with the high-quality (HD) setting will result in 
better image quality, but it also shortens the amount of time you can shoot.
• The 16:9 aspect ratio is available only when “HD” is selected as the image quality.
• Memory capacity (Movie recording time you can shoot) will be affected by the 
quality settings you configure (page 167).

Procedure
[r] (REC) * [SET] * MENU * Quality Tab * EV Shift
You can manually adjust an image’s exposure value (EV value) before shooting it.
• Exposure Compensation Range: –2.0 EV to +2.0 EV
• Unit: 1/3 EV
1.Use [8] and [2] to adjust the exposure compensation value.
To cancel exposure compensation, change the EV value to 0.0.
2.Press [SET].
This applies the exposure compensation value. The exposure compensation 
value you set remains in effect until you change it or turn off the camera (which 
causes it to revert to “0.0”).
NOTE
• When shooting under very dark or very bright conditions, you may not be able to 
obtain satisfactory results even after performing exposure compensation.
Correcting Image Brightness (EV Shift)
[8] : Increases the EV value. A higher EV 
value is best for light-colored subjects 
and backlit subjects.
[2] : Decreases the EV value. A lower EV 
value is best for dark-color subjects and 
for shooting outdoors on a clear day.

Procedure
[r] (REC) * [SET] * MENU * Quality Tab * White Balance
You can adjust white balance to match the source of light available where you are 
shooting and avoid the blue cast that results when shooting outdoors when it is 
cloudy, and the green cast that results when shooting under fluorescent lighting.
• When “Auto” is selected for the white balance setting, the camera automatically 
determines the white point of the subject. Certain subject colors and light source 
conditions can cause problems when the camera tries to determine the white point, 
which makes proper white balance adjustment impossible. If this happens, select 
the white balance setting that matches your shooting conditions (Daylight, 
Overcast, etc.).
Controlling White Balance (White Balance)
AutoConfigures the camera to adjust white balance automatically.
 (Daylight)For shooting outdoors on a clear day

2Under the lighting conditions you plan to 
use when shooting, point the camera at a 
blank white piece of paper so it fills the 
entire monitor screen and then press the 
shutter button.

The white balance setting is retained even if you turn off the 
camera.

sensitivity setting.
• Higher ISO sensitivity values tend to result in digital noise in images.
